I think VH1 is just taking any one who will do it now. I mean, they had a BTM for Adam Lambert and Nicole Scherzinger and those two were on REALITY television shows.
Yeah, Pitbull has one. I'm watching it now. Like I said, he's popular, but I just don't see what's so dynamic about him, his story or his music to warrant one. He is so... underwhelming in every aspect.
Michael is a legend, but Prince took more risks which ultimately paid off (in my opinion at least) in regard to his artistry. He's slept on but so innovative. I don't know why either, but I used to BOP to "Fury".
To be fair, that's what made MJ such a huge phenomenon. He made songs that were easily relatable to EVERYONE, not just a certain group of people. I appreciate his artistry. Being risky isn't always a good thing.
Michael > Prince.
Prince has a couple of songs i love, but none of them do it for me the way Smooth Criminal, The Way You Make Me Feel, Dirty Diana etc. Classics that everyone knows from birth.

And LOL at Janet being better in any way. Her music aged so badly (minus 'Control')
